Three Things To Know

The content
The page mixes accusations that Harold Levillair contests with public facts, which he publishes himself with their references. Publishing accusations anonymously does not make them true.

The courts
Public defamation is an offence. A complaint has been filed. Summary proceedings are under way to have the site taken down. The identity of the person behind the site is known. That person will answer for it in court.
Anonymity on the internet is not immunity.
Whoever publishes online answers for what they publish, with or without a name on the page.
A judge can order the removal of content and the disclosure of the data that identify its author.
The Law
French law forbids public defamation, and it gives a judge the means to stop it.
| Law of 29 July 1881 on the freedom of the press, article 29 | Defines defamation: to allege a fact that harms a person’s honour or reputation. |
|---|---|
| Same law, article 32 | Punishes the public defamation of an individual with a fine of 12,000 euros. |
